How to view albums in grid in one genre?

Is it possible to find a way to view all of your albums in one genre in "grid" view, so that you can see a bunch of albums all within that genre at once? I like the beginning of "grid" view, but once you click on a genre, it changes to a type of list view. The 'rollover' effect when you mouse over one genre is good, but it does not seem to be in a specific order, and then it shows only a few albums (for example about 4 or 5 different out of 148 that exist in that one genre).
Is there a way to see all those albums in that one genre - their cover/artwork - in "grid"? Essentially, I think I'm looking for a view like "icon" view in the Finder, where I'm seeing all the different icons of my albums within one 'folder' of one genre. Can it be done, and if so, how?
Thanks.

Type in the name of the Genre in the search box. All albums containing that text, anywhere, will be displayed. While this may still display the odd track from different genres which use the same words in most cases it should narrow things down significantly.

How to view Albums in Genres within iPod on ipad?

When within genres, i can only seem to view a list of all tracks. How do i view albums within genres?
Thanks.

AFAIK and from the limited research that I have done, you can't do that on the iPad. Apparently the feature is available on the iPhone (?) but not on the iPad.

How to view albums by artowork, regardless of artist...HELP

I have the new iTunes, and when viewing in the album view, I see all the artwork(and lack of), but because I have for example, Talib Kweli Feat. John Legend as the artist, and the song name without the featuring artist(obviously, as I have it with the artist), I get multiples of the same album when I just want to view by album, NOT by album and hten by artist.
Is there a way to combine/fix this?
Thanks.

Assuming I get this correctly, if you're talking about the standard "List" view by Album, where your album art is down the left hand side.
Click on the "Album" column at the top of the page. It changes from "Album" to "Album by Artist" to "Album by Year" then back to "Album" each time you click on it.
It took me ages to work this out, I didn't notice it changed
If you are talking about the new "Grid" view, then I don't know I'm sorry. Mine lists it all how I want it to, in Album order.

How to View Album as Only THumbnails and Enlarged Image

I hope I can explain this right...
When I click an album on my page, it takes me to a page of smaller thumbnails of all of the images in that album and the thumbnails are scattered around the page. When I click on any of the images, it takes me to a page that shows a strip of square thumbs across the top of the page with one enlarged image beneath, with the option of clicking on any of the thumbs or starting a slideshow, etc. Is there a way you can be brought directly to this page from the main albums page and bypass the middle page of medium sized thumbs? That middle page seems unnecessary and I'd be psyched to learn how to skip it. Thanks!!

Thanks Cyclosaurus. That works great and does just what I wanted. There are a few small glitches though that you may be able to help with.

When clicking on the People gallery, the page we're bypassing blinks briefly before going to the thumbnail page. This doesn't happen on the other pages. Any thoughts?
It's servers latency or you browser caching, it's part of async processing (AJAX).
Also, there is a Back to Album link in the upper left which takes you to a blank page and then you have to click the Back to Index link to get to the main Gallery page. Can I get the Back to Index link on the other page instead?
Give this a try:
<script type='text/javascript'>
_base=parent.window.location.href;
if(_base.indexOf('#')==-1){parent.window.location=_base.split('#')[0]+'#0';}
var albumsIndexURL = 'http://web.me.com/jrcphoto/jrcphoto/GALLERY/GALLERY.html'; // this is you album URL, change this if needed
function newBtI() {
if (parent.widgets) {
headerControls = parent.document.getElementsByClassName('com-apple-iweb-widget-detailview')[0];
backToAlbumDiv = headerControls.getElementsByClassName('left')[0];
backToAlbumAnchors = backToAlbumDiv.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (btaai=0;btaai<backToAlbumAnchors.length;btaai++) {
backToAlbumAnchors[btaai].removeAttribute('onclick');
backToAlbumAnchors[btaai].setAttribute('href', ('' + albumsIndexURL));
chknewBtI = setInterval('newBtI()', 500);
</script>

How to show album covers show when playing a track?

Hi, im just wondering how it is that you have an album cover showing when you're playing a track, e.g, the one on the iPod main site where it has the red hot chilli peppers cover there.
Where is it you copy the cover to, and how do you get it to show?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

How to view pictures sequentially?

I have a Nokia E71 phone and would like to know how to view pictures in a folder one after the other (that is, without having to press the back button). it seems like the built-in app won't do that. I'd also like the similar capability with video files too. Are there some recommended apps? Please suggest. Thanks.

Hi Henryhippo,
If you have questions about play order in iTunes, you may find the following article helpful; I believe you can use the Play Next or Add to Up Next to add albums as well as songs.

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album?

I have photos I want to group together in one album, but can't do this because some may have the same number. How can I combine them all into one album? I was trying to move several albums onto a USB drive and it stated all other files exist at this location. They are pictures taken at different times and have the same number I guess.

In iPhoto albums may contain photos with the same file name - iPhoto handles that just fine
If you are exporting them to move somewhere else use the sequential file name feature of export to give each file a unique name
